DeKalb County investigators are looking for information on a burglary that occurred about midnight Wednesday at a pharmacy in Fyffe.

Sheriff Jimmy Harris in a release said as police responded to an alarm caused by a broken front window of a Kountry Korner store on Alabama Highway 75, they received a call that another alarm had sounded at the Fyffe Pharmacy.

When officers arrived three minutes later, they discovered a large window broken out and signs the pharmacy had been entered. During a search, prescription medicines were discovered to be missing.

Investigators recovered evidence including what appeared to be flesh on the broken window and a blood trail from the window to inside the store. It has been taken to the Alabama Department of Forensics Science in Huntsville for processing.

Anyone with information on the burglary is asked to call the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office at 256-845-3801 or the Fyffe Police Department at 256-623-2222.
